Head Over Feet

I was talking to a friend today and got reminded of how wonderful Alanis Morissette is.
The joke was that I'm always attracted to angsty people.
But in truth, I'm attracted to people who just happen to be as emotional and raw as me.

So I opened up iTunes and went straight to the most famous "Head Over Feet". I looked at the lyrics and decided, yup, this is exactly the guy that I'm going to need.

While I hit repeat, go ahead and enjoy it. Sing along. Feel the passion of knowing someone can love you, unconditionally.



I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it

You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was

You've already won me over in spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service

You've already won me over in spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault

You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience

You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took me so long

I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now

You've already won me over in spite of me
And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it
It's all your fault


And remember, no matter where you end up and who you end up with, make sure they love you, in spite of yourself.
